On March 5, Hyeongjun’s agency announced, “CRAVITY’s Hyeongjun will appear in ‘Kill the Romeo.’ Please show lots of support and anticipation as he reveals a new side of himself through the role of ‘Hyeongjun.’” “Kill the Romeo” is an interactive, multi-ending romantic comedy short-form drama that begins when a killer—who lives a double life as a passionate idol fan—receives a new mission, only to discover that the target is their own favorite idol.

The fate and ending of the main character Hyeongjun change depending on the viewer’s choices, allowing audiences to experience the story from the killer’s perspective. Hyeongjun will play an idol character who shares his real name, marking his first step into acting. In the drama, Hyeongjun is the center of a popular idol group and the killer’s ultimate bias. Known for his warm and cheerful personality as well as his thoughtful and considerate nature, Hyeongjun finds himself in shock after learning at a fan signing event that he has become the killer’s target. From there, his fate—and the story’s ending—varies entirely based on the viewer’s decisions. With its first-person visual style, “Kill the Romeo” heightens immersion while incorporating multiple branching storylines that highlight the interactive format. Viewers step into the role of the killer and face the dilemma of whether to eliminate or protect their favorite idol, with each decision directly shaping the direction and outcome of the story. “Kill the Romeo” has completed filming and is currently in the final stages of post-production.

The cozy scene makes them feel like a real family, bringing a smile to anyone who sees them. Sung Tae Hoon smiles gently, showing the reassuring presence of a devoted family head, while Jo Mi Ryeo, who has been caring for their three sons while her husband has been busy with work, stands out as the firm center of the family. Meanwhile, the eldest son, Sung Ji Cheon, sits with a sentimental air, while the second son, Sung Ji Sang, shows the energetic charm typical of a teenage boy.

Koo Kyo Hwan Struggles To Find His Place In The World In “We Are All Trying Here”
JTBC’s upcoming weekend drama “We Are All Trying Here” has unveiled its first stills of Koo Kyo Hwan! “We Are All Trying Here” tells the story of Hwang Dong Man (Koo Kyo Hwan), who, surrounded by successful friends, believes he is the only one whose life isn’t working out. Consumed by anguish, envy, and jealousy, he sets out on a journey in search of peace. Hwang Dong Man is a man who talks nonstop in an attempt to erase the anxiety that fills him. Even when he appears annoyingly jealous of his successful friends, his behavior is less about malice and more like a desperate struggle to break the silence and prove that he exists. Afraid that quiet moments might expose his own sense of worthlessness—or that he might be forgotten by the world—Hwang Dong Man constantly fills the air with chatter to feel at ease. In the end, his long-winded monologues are not driven by ill intent, but rather serve as a transparent signal of survival—his way of shouting to the world, “I’m still here.” His frantic efforts to push back against his anxiety will serve as a key point of interest in the character. Although flawed, Hwang Dong Man possesses a charm that makes him difficult to hate. Every moment, he wrestles with his feelings of inadequacy. Behind his carefree and cheerful exterior, however, lies a deeply wounded side. Hwang Dong Man is also a “romantic eccentric” who refuses to bow to the world’s gaze and instead writes his own story. His strange habits—such as trying to catch falling leaves or climbing a neighborhood hill just to shout his own name—are, in fact, acts of resistance against sinking into the swamp of worthlessness. In other words, they are a form of romantic defiance. He stubbornly insists on wearing a leather coat belonging to a World War II veteran every day. Even though the weight of reality exhausts him after just 10 minutes, he ultimately lifts the coat’s collar with determination. In that sense, Hwang Dong Man is the very embodiment of a romantic eccentric striving to prove his own worth. The character represents a universal self that many modern people have experienced at least once, while also acting as a persona that reveals the honest inner feelings we often try to hide. “We Are All Trying Here” is set to premiere in April.
Im Soo Jung Dishes On Her Character In Upcoming Drama "Mad Concrete Dreams"
Im Soo Jung has shared her thoughts on her new drama “Mad Concrete Dreams”! “Mad Concrete Dreams” is a thriller drama that follows Ki Soo Jong (Ha Jung Woo), a struggling landlord who becomes entangled in crime to protect his family and property. While he achieves the coveted status of a landlord, mounting debts lead him to participate in a staged kidnapping. However, the plan spirals out of control as the fake kidnapping turns dangerously real. Im Soo Jung plays Kim Sun, the wife of Ki Soo Jong and a strong, sharp-minded woman. Kim Sun is a “steel mom” with an unmatched sense of reality who never loses her composure even in a crisis. She gave up her job as a nurse to focus on educating her daughter Da Rae, who has a hearing impairment, and now lives with the goal of supporting Da Rae’s studies abroad. When her husband—who bought a building by maxing out loans—starts behaving suspiciously, Kim Sun senses that something is off. Then, as she takes action for the sake of her daughter and family, she drives the story in an unpredictable direction. Im Soo Jung explained that choosing “Mad Concrete Dreams” was a genre challenge for her. She said, “Over the past few years, I wanted the projects in my filmography to expand in terms of genre. The film ‘Cobweb,’ the OTT series ‘Low Life,’ and then ‘Mad Concrete Dreams’—for me, they are projects that belong within a single chapter.” Speaking about her character Kim Sun, Im Soo Jung stated, “She is someone with the belief that her daughter and family matter more than the building. At a certain point, she ends up helping her husband Ki Soo Jong and getting involved in the incident. The two bicker in everyday life, but the moment Kim Sun decides she has to protect her family, exciting scenes unfold where she and her husband work in sync.” “Mad Concrete Dreams” is set to premiere on March 14 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
Cha Joo Young Transforms Into A Hotel President Who Seeks Power In New Drama “Climax”
ENA’s upcoming drama “Climax” has unveiled new stills of Cha Joo Young in character! “Climax” follows the fierce survival story of prosecutor Bang Tae Seob (Ju Ji Hoon), who dives into a power-driven cartel in order to rise to the top of South Korea’s power ladder. Cha Joo Young plays Lee Yang Mi, the president of WR Hotel and a leading figure in the WR Group. She has shaped the power landscape where politics, business, and entertainment intersect. With the presidential election approaching, she is introduced as a strategist who has supported Nam Hye Hoon, mayor of Seoam and a rising presidential contender, while building strong connections. Lee Yang Mi reads the flow of events and makes choices that work in her favor, rather than being swayed by circumstances. On the surface, she appears elegant and composed, but underneath, she hides careful calculation and a desire for power. She will take even bolder actions the moment the world she has built begins to shake. The stills show contrasting moods. In one image, she turns back wearing a bold patterned fur coat, her calm gaze hinting at sharp judgment behind a glamorous exterior. In another still, dressed in black fur and wearing a relaxed smile, her unreadable eyes contrast with her soft expression, revealing an inner drive to take control of the situation. “Climax” will premiere on March 16 at 10 p.m. KST.
